Alexander Stephen participated in the ongoing trend with a funny 3D animation.
With the "cloth subdivision" trend now officially dead and the "cube-shattering" meme rising to take its place, more and more creators are coming up with unique ways to dispose of Blender's most iconic mesh. One such creator is Alexander Stephen, a 3D Modeler and Prop Maker known online as PlanetAlexanderProjects, who recently caught the attention of thousands by presenting his own twist on this popular trend.
Over on Reddit, the artist showed how to split Blender's default cube in two in a weeaboo-style, with his humorous animation referencing the well-known anime-related meme of a katana briefly half-exiting the scabbard, followed by the target slowly realizing it was cut. While not the most technically complex project, this Blender-made sequence is undeniably entertaining and can captivate you for more than one rewatch. After all, isn't satisfying the beholder one of the most important qualities a piece of art should possess?
